From industry curiosity to career ready
A single, connected journey that takes students from discovering industries all the way to AI-powered interview practice — awarding them a certificate they can actually use. Along the way, they'll build the skills employers are looking for and practise their interview technique, all within one flexible journey that works for them.
Industry Insight Programmes
Story-led placements that let students explore entire sectors — not just single companies. Students follow a storyline through real roles, decisions and challenges so they can discover what actually interests them before committing.
Programmes are prioritised with input from our network of schools and careers leaders, so they reflect what matters most to students.
Live now: Tech & AI and Construction. New sectors coming soon.
Virtual Work & Study Experiences
Employer-built programmes from leading employers and universities. Students get a real feel for industry and higher education before they apply.
For teachers: Helping you track experiences against Gatsby Benchmarks, support your work experience guarantee, work tasters and industry placements — no manual tracking required.
Skills Programmes
Employability and Digital Skills programmes aligned to skills frameworks and CPD accredited. Students develop the competencies employers actually ask for — communication, problem-solving, digital literacy — and track their growth over time.
CPD accredited with transparent progression data so teachers can evidence impact to SLT and inspection frameworks.
AI Interview Coach
Students bring everything together — the sectors they explored, the experiences they completed, the skills they built — and practise in real-time, personalised mock interviews for real roles, in a safe space where getting it wrong is part of getting it right. Detailed AI feedback helps them refine their answers until they land.
Outcome: confident applicants with evidence-backed stories ready for university, apprenticeship or employer interviews.
